In a recent court filing related to Sean “Diddy” Combs’ federal indictment, the rapper’s defense team claimed that CNN altered video footage of him attacking his then-girlfriend Cassie in a hotel hallway. Diddy’s lawyers accused CNN of altering the footage and destroying the original, allegations that CNN has denied. The footage, which went viral in May 2024, showed Diddy apologizing for his actions and seeking help to address his behavior.
Diddy, who is currently in jail awaiting trial on federal charges including sex trafficking, has denied all allegations against him. His lawyer has criticized the U.S. Attorney’s Office for pursuing what they believe is an unjust prosecution. In addition to legal troubles, Diddy is facing numerous lawsuits from individuals who claim he harmed and exploited them.
Despite the ongoing legal battles, Diddy remains committed to being a better person each day and has sought professional help to address his behavior. His trial is set for May 5, where he will have the opportunity to defend himself against the charges brought against him. CNN maintains that they did not alter the video footage and did not destroy the original copy, which was retained by the source.
